Those were some great flowers since the last time I saw them.
Nothing spectacular from me. A rose from the rose garden in Butchart Gardens, Vancouver Island.

Lovely, unfolding pattern on the rose, Sury!

Bakubo, that's an excellent yellow Hibiscus! Being in Hawaii, you have access to some great Hibiscus types...


Thanks for sharing,

Lovely roses Sury. I finally got to see them at home, as my work computer blocks them. :(
Here is one from Thursday, on my way home from work. If it doesn't show the beauty of flowers, then it certainly shows their tenacity. John

John,
Thank you. I like the beauty and beast contrast of the delicate flowers and the brute of a machine.

Henry,
I love the single sharp "blade" with rest of the flower soft. Leaves a lot to imagination and make me wonder
how the whole flower would look like.

Hi Sury,

Nice closeup of roses. Your garden must be thriving right now.. : )

Hi John,

It's indeed a beauty and tenacy shot. Good irony! A sad sight...


Hi Henry,

Amazing dreamy look on the pink and wonderful sharp details on the Nymphaea-Blue Aster. A very vibrant purple it is...

Very refreshing shots of a water lily,

Yildiz

Mine are just a couple of shots from the garden, taken today.

Lovely yellow Hibiscus and exceptional Lotus? a really great shot that one Henry.
Very nice Roses Sury and well focused as well.
Almost a 'Day After' shot that one John, no driver in the iron monster and flowers have begun to spring up...
Lovely work there Yildiz, you really are taking flower shots of a high order these days.
